"...a brilliant, exciting, essentially tragic film" (Peter Black, Daily Mail)
"I am proud that Britain made this film. It should be compulsory viewing for everyone that possesses a television licence" (Neville Randall, Daily Sketch)
"...stimulating..." (Maurice Richardson, The Observer)
"...enthralling..." (Maurice Wiggin, Sunday Times)
